NHTSA Complaint #11252173 — 2014 FORD F-150

DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, YELLOW WRENCH APPEARED ON MAIN SCREEN. TRUCK IMMEDIATELY WENT TO LIMP MODE. NO ACCELERATION AVAILABLE. DIFFICULT AND DANGEROUS TO GET TO SAFETY. TURNED OFF TRUCK AND WAITED A FEW MINUTES TO RESTART AND TRUCK SEEMED FINE. ALSO, WHEN CRESTING A HILL IN SIXTH GEAR AND SLIGHTLY LIFTING ON THE ACCELERATOR, THE VEHICLE HAS A BIG THUNK THAT CAN BE FELT THROUGHOUT THE VEHICLE. SEEMS TO BE IN THE TRANSMISSION. HOWEVER, 'NO CODES' ARE GENERATED FOR THIS OR THE YELLOW WRENCH. FORD SAY POSSIBLE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY, LEAD FRAME FOR THE TRANSMISSION, OR SPARK PLUGS. OUR SPARKS PLUGS ARE FORD BRAND AND NEW. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS SAME ISSUE FOR THE 2011-2013 F150, BUT THIS DOESN'T INCLUDE OUR TRUCK AS IT'S A 2014. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT DESERVES ANOTHER RECALL AND FORD AGAIN TO COVER THE REPAIRS. THIS IS HAPPENING TO TOO MANY FORD OWNERS AND SOMEONE WILL GET HURT IF THEY HAVEN'T ALREADY. THERE IS A LAW SUIT AGAINST FORD FOR SEVERAL MODELS WITH THIS SAME ISSUE. PLEASE DO THE ONLINE RESEARCH ON THIS ISSUE AND SEE IF SOMETHING CAN BE DONE. OUR TRUCK ISN'T SAFE TO DRIVE AND IT'S AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR A SECOND TIME. NO RESOLUTION THE FIRST TIME BECAUSE NO CODES ARE BEING SAVED BY THE COMPUTER. ACCORDING TO MY RESEARCH FORD KNEW OF THESE ISSUES FOR YEARS AND THEY FAILED TO TAKE CARE OF THE COMPUTER CODE ISSUE AND FIXED THE FAULTY VEHICLES THEY SOLD.
